“I’m beyond excited to play alongside some of the best in the game and tackle the high-stakes action. Just like on the football field, I’ll be bringing my competitive edge and giving it everything I’ve got at the tables.”
Nick Wright added: “I’ve loved playing poker since my grandfather taught me, and playing in The Big Game, one of my all-time favorite poker shows, is truly a dream come true. I can’t wait to be competing with some of the best players in the world–and Gronk. This is a bucket list moment for me, and I’m beyond excited to get to Vegas and get the cards in the air!”
SPECIAL CONTESTS TO WIN
For a chance to pull up a seat against the pair, PokerStars sister brand FanDuel Daily Fantasy Sports has lined up special NFL contests.
Running for the first two weeks of the season, two winners will get their hands on a coveted NAPT Gold Pass.
These prize packages allow winners to bypass the qualification phase of the Big Game on Tour and head straight to auditions. It’s there you’ll have to chance to play against “Gronk” and Nick at the Big Game on Tour.
